Chapter 1921: Chapter 582: Compromise (Part 5)
"There’s no problem relying on our own abilities, but if you really do it this way, then you’ve fallen into the Federation’s trap."
Fanluo God Emperor said as he looked at everyone.
"What do you mean?"
Hirog Clan Leader stared at Fanluo God Emperor and asked.
"The Federation handing over the Dimension Stone at this time is clearly a tactic to divide and weaken us. Although our alliance is inherently fragile, we shouldn’t be that easily tricked, right? You should clearly understand how strong the Federation is now. If we end up fighting each other over the Dimension Stone, they’ll just watch us tear each other apart and then swoop in to take it back. By then, not only would we end up with nothing, but we might also be wiped out by the Federation!"
Fanluo God Emperor replied with a smile.
"Makes sense, so what do you suggest we do?"
Herares Clan Leader asked authoritatively.
"It’s very simple. Once the Federation hands over the Dimension Stone, none of us should make a move. Each side sends a representative to watch over the Dimension Stone. Afterward, we all work together to heavily damage the Federation, and then vie for the Dimension Stone. This way, no matter if we win or lose, we won’t let the Federation reap the benefits!"
Fanluo God Emperor proposed to the three.
"Feasible!"
Herares Clan Leader agreed.
"Alright!"
Dark Star Emperor did not object either.
"No problem."
Seeing this, Hirog Clan Leader also agreed in a deep voice.
"Good, then it’s settled!"
Fanluo God Emperor replied with a smile.
Dark Star Emperor and Herares Clan Leader then cut off the communication, leaving only Hirog Clan Leader.
Fanluo God Emperor then respectfully expressed his stance to Hirog Clan Leader.
"Lord Hirog, don’t worry! I, Fanluo God Emperor, am your most loyal ally. Once we crush the Federation, I will do everything in my power to help you seize the Dimension Stone."
"Very well! As long as I can get the Dimension Stone, you will not be short of benefits afterward!"
Hirog Clan Leader promised Fanluo God Emperor.
"Thank you, Lord Hirog Clan Leader."
Fanluo God Emperor replied with a smile.
...
On the other side, after cutting off the video, Herares Clan Leader, with golden sparks flickering, silently pondered Fanluo God Emperor’s proposal.
Though Fanluo God Emperor spoke with logic, this matter isn’t so simple.
It’s currently in a very passive position; with the death of Elrosatin, it no longer has Emperor Level combat strength, and four Heroic Level elders have fled. The only remaining strength is Temshi, while Chilami still has two Vice Clan Leaders and four elders!
Thus, even if Fanluo God Emperor’s plan is executed and the Federation is successfully heavily damaged, its chances of seizing the Dimension Stone remain low!
Moreover, that crafty Fanluo God Emperor, with his own hidden agendas, at least openly stands with Chilami. As for the Dark Star Empire, discussions with Dark Star Emperor have been fruitless, as that guy remains unmoved.
Herares then considered other strategies, and soon a sinister smile appeared.
.......
Starlight City.
Inside the luxurious villa’s hall.
Long Ying entered with Xinlad, waved his hand, and all personnel in the hall withdrew.
At this point, Xinlad said to Long Ying,
"My lord, what should we do now?"
"Damn it, I really didn’t expect Long Bai and the others to compromise. If I’d known, I would have let them invade!"
Long Ying was seething with anger.
"My lord, it’s no use talking about it now, we must find a way to stop it."
Xinlad said to Long Ying.
"Stop it? How do we stop it?"
Long Ying replied coldly.
"So are we just going to watch them hand over the Dimension Stone?"
"There’s no particularly good way now; we can only wait for Dark Star, Apocalypse, Chilami, and the Mechanical Clan to start fighting over it. Then we seize the opportunity to see if we have a chance to snatch it!"
"But my lord, even if we manage to seize it, we can’t keep it."
Xinlad asked respectfully.
"As long as I can get it, I have a way to leave. Once I fuse with the Dimension Stone to become a god, I can return to control the Federation, eliminate all enemies, and achieve domination!"
Long Ying’s eyes burned with fervor, knowing this was his only chance to reach the top.
"You’re wise, my lord!"
Xinlad replied with a glint in his eyes.
"Xinlad, I’m counting on you next! Rest assured, once I succeed in rising to power, you’ll be second only to me, with anything you want at your disposal!"
Long Ying promised to Xinlad.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Xinlad replied with utmost respect.
----------------------
Two days later.
The time finally came for the Federation to hand over the Dimension Stone.
These two days marked the most uncontrolled and chaotic period of public opinion in the history of the Federation.
Countless citizens bickered on the Star Cluster Forum, with many even resorting to physical altercations on the streets over whether to hand over the stone.
The situation nearly spiraled out of control, but ultimately the decision of the Federation Council remained unchanged.
